The Uruguayan international has developed into one of the best defenders in European football over the last couple of seasons.

Indeed, his form last season helped Atletico win their first La Liga title since 1996 and reach the final of the Champions League.

According to Sportmediaset, Juventus are confident of enticing the centre-back with a big-money move in January, but the Serie A champions will have to meet Godin's release clause, which stands at around £30m.
